 PAW Week 1 - Kids

Much of the Christmas and New Years break was spent at several beaches near and around Melbourne, this one was taken at Ocean Grove, and proved to be the kids favourite b/c of the waves coming in off Bass Straight. Though the kids loved this aspect, it made the lives of their parents a little too stressful and we tended to find calmer water to splash in on the following few excursions.

Waves are great fun for kids but I understand the stress of keeping an eye on them all, especially little ones. Looks like they were all having a great time.

Oh, I do like the color of this. I would suggest straightening the horizon, as it slants downwards ever so slightly. Very fun photo!

I agree, great old time feel with a smooth touch and a nice wide perspective.

We get to watch your kids grow up during the next 52 weeks? Awesome :)

I can only dream of spending Christmas at the beach. It looks like everyone was having such a good time. Love the slight motion blur of the little one running.

I must say I am jealous... At the beach on new years eve. I love the beach light and here it looks like you have captured the deep tones on a sunny day with a polarizer. Good family fun too. Some of my most favorite shots of my daughter are on the beach! Great memories.

Intrepid explorers! I like the color toning. This seems to be the rage among iPhone users - how are you achieving it?

Looks like fun!
Your description makes me think of the Christmas Song by Tim Minchin, "White Wine in the Sun."
